1. A method for modulating navigation signal, the method comprising the following steps: 1) dividing frequency of a control clock CLK 0 to obtain a pseudo-code generating drive clock CLK 1 and a time division multiplexing (TDM) control clock CLK 2 by utilizing a first frequency divider and a second frequency divider, respectively, where, a frequency of the control clock CLK 0 is four times that of a binary subcarrier, a frequency of the pseudo-code generating drive clock CLK 1 is ½ of a code rate, and a frequency of the TDM control clock CLK 2 is equivalent to the code rate; 2) driving the CLK 1 to generate pseudo-code c BD of a data channel of an upper sideband, pseudo-code c AD of a data channel of a lower sideband, and pseudo-code Cp of a pilot channel by utilizing a pseudo-code generator; driving the CLK 0 to generate a binary sine subcarrier SC B,sin and a binary cosine subcarrier SC B,cos by utilizing a subcarrier generator; 3) modulating the c AD by a lower sideband d A to generate a baseband signal component C A of the data channel of the lower sideband by utilizing a first multiplier; modulating the c BD by an upper sideband waveform d B to generate a baseband signal component C B of the data channel of the upper sideband by utilizing a fourth multiplier; 4) modulating the subcarriers, which comprising: (4.1) negating the C A and adding to the C B , and multiplying with the SC B,sin to get a signal component of data channel at Q branch by utilizing a subtracter and a second multiplier; adding the C A to the C B and multiplying with the SC B,cos to get a signal component of data channel at I branch by utilizing a second adder and a fifth multiplier; multiplying the C P by 2 and then multiplying with the SC B,cos to get a signal component of the pilot channel at I branch by utilizing a seventh multiplier and an eighth multiplier; and (4.2) when the CLK 2 is in a time slot of odd chip, allowing the signal component of the data channel at Q branch to be a signal component of a baseband signal at Q branch by utilizing a first time division multiplexer, and allowing the signal component of the data channel at I branch to be a signal component of a baseband signal at I branch by utilizing a second time division multiplexer; when CLK 2 is in a time slot of even chip, allowing zero signal to be the signal component of the baseband signal at Q branch by utilizing the first time division multiplexer, and allowing the signal component of the pilot channel at I branch to be the signal component of the baseband signal at I branch by utilizing the second time division multiplexer; and 5) modulating a sine phase carrier by the signal component of the baseband signal at Q branch, modulating a cosine phase carrier by the signal component of the baseband signal at I branch, and combining the modulation result of the two branches to obtain a modulated radio frequency signal by utilizing an RF modulator.
